Xanthan gum, also known as Hanseum gum, is a kind of microbial exopolysaccharide produced by Xanthomnas campestris by fermentation engineering using carbohydrates as the main raw material (such as corn starch). It has unique rheology, good water solubility, heat and acid-base stability, and has good compatibility with a variety of salts, as a thickening agent, suspension agent, emulsifier, stabilizer, can be widely used in food, petroleum, medicine and other more than 20 industries, is currently the world's largest production scale and extremely widely used microbial polysaccharide.
Because of its unique properties, xanthan gum has a very wide range of applications in more than a dozen fields such as food, petroleum, medicine, daily chemical industry, etc. Its high degree of commercialization and wide range of applications make any other microbial polysaccharide unmatched.
1, food: many foods are added to xanthan gum as a stabilizer, emulsifier, suspension agent, thickening agent and processing aid. Xanthan gum can control the rheology, structure, flavor and appearance of the product, and its false plasticity can ensure good taste, so it is widely used in salad dressings, breads, dairy products, frozen foods, beverages, condiments, brewing, candy, pastries, soups and canned foods. In recent years, people in more developed countries often worry that the caloric value of food is too high and make themselves fat, xanthan gum because it can not be directly degraded by the human body to dispel people's concerns. In addition, according to a 1985 report from Japan, xanthan gum was the most effective anticancer agent among 11 food additives tested in comparison.
2, daily chemical industry: Xanthan gum molecules contain a large number of hydrophilic groups, is a good surface active substance, and has anti-oxidation, prevent skin aging and other effects, therefore, almost the vast majority of high-grade cosmetics are xanthan gum as its main functional components. In addition, xanthan gum can also be used as an ingredient of toothpaste to thicken and shape the substance and reduce tooth surface wear.
3. Medical aspects: Xanthan gum is a functional component in microcapsule drug materials that is currently hot in the world, and plays an important role in controlling the slow release of drugs; Due to its strong hydrophilicity and water retention, there are many specific medical applications, such as the formation of a dense water film to avoid skin infections; Alleviating thirst of patients after radiotherapy. In addition, Li Xin and Xu Lei have written that xanthan gum itself has a significant enhancement effect on the humoral immune function of mice.
4, industrial and agricultural applications: in the petroleum industry, due to its strong pseudoplasticity, low concentration of xanthan gum (0.5%) aqueous solution can maintain the viscosity of drilling fluid and control its rheological properties, so in the high-speed rotation of the bit site viscosity is very small, saving power; The relatively static borehole site maintains a high viscosity to prevent wall collapse. And because of its excellent salt resistance and heat resistance, it is widely used in Marine, high salt zone and other special environment drilling, and can be used as oil recovery and displacement agent, reduce dead oil areas, improve oil recovery rate.
